ETH Swing Volatility Breakout (BTC Trend-Gated) is an official Trigr strategy by 0x7216…0007. It trades ETH on the 4h timeframe, long only. Version 10 was published on 2026-10-09.
Waits for ETH volatility to build and trades the breakout, riding expansion moves as the range resolves, taking signals only when the prevailing BTC trend agrees. Position size scales down when volatility spikes, and every trade is time-boxed so positions never overstay. Signed net-friction backtest: return +256.8%, Sharpe 0.82, profit factor 1.3861, max drawdown −31.3%, 330 trades. Includes the 1 bps builder fee, 10 bps slippage, point-in-time funding, next-bar fills, and a 40% venue-placeable Hyperliquid stop. Historical results are hypothetical, selection-conditioned, and not a guarantee of live returns.
